Top Islanders News

  • Islanders' Pierre Engvall: Scores again Saturday

    Engvall scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

    Engvall has tallied in back-to-back games and looks to be strengthening his spot in the Islanders' lineup. The winger saw just 12:37 of ice time Saturday, but it was his eighth game in a row in the lineup. Overall, he has four points, 22 shots on net, six PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 10 appearances.

  • Islanders' Brock Nelson: Tallies shorthanded in loss

    Nelson scored a shorthanded goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

    Nelson gave the Islanders a 2-1 lead in the third period, but it lasted just 37 seconds. The veteran center has three goals and an assist over his last seven contests. For the season, he's produced seven tallies, three helpers, 56 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 18 appearances. Nelson has some value as a depth scorer in fantasy while seeing consistent second-line minutes.

  • Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Win slips away Saturday

    Sorokin made 24 saves in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

    The Isles held the lead early in the third period but Sorokin couldn't make it stick, giving up two goals in the final frame. The 29-year-old netminder has allowed at least three goals in six straight starts to begin the month of November, going 2-2-2 with a 3.43 GAA and .900 save percentage.

  • Islanders' Alexander Romanov: Not available Saturday

    Romanov (upper body) will not be in the lineup in Seattle on Saturday, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

    Romanov will sit out his seventh consecutive game. The defenseman has yet to practice with full contact since he last played Nov. 1. Romanov has two assists, 16 hits and 21 blocked shots in eight games in 2024-25.

  • Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Slated starter for Saturday

    Sorokin is expected to start on the road against Seattle on Saturday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

    Sorokin will attempt to rebound after allowing at least three goals in each of his past five starts. He's 4-3-3 with a 2.66 GAA and a .915 save percentage over 10 appearances in 2024-25. The Kraken have been a middling squad in 2024-25, posting an 8-8-1 record while being tied for 17th offensively with 3.00 goals per game.

  • Islanders' Oliver Wahlstrom: Hands out helper

    Wahlstrom recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Wahlstrom has earned two points over his last four outings, accounting for all of his offense this season. It's been enough to keep him in the lineup for seven straight games as he fends off a playing-time challenge from Hudson Fasching. Wahlstrom has added 13 shots on net, seven PIM and a minus-5 rating over 13 appearances this season. Fantasy managers can look elsewhere for depth scoring since he is averaging just 9:45 of ice time.

  • Islanders' Simon Holmstrom: Delivers helper in win

    Holmstrom notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Holmstrom set up Pierre Engvall's goal in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. November has treated Holmstrom well, especially compared to his quiet October. He has two goals and four assists over seven outings this month, putting the winger at a total of eight points, 16 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 17 contests this season.

  • Islanders' Kyle Palmieri: Slides helper in win

    Palmieri recorded an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Palmieri continued his excellent November with a modest contribution, a secondary helper on Noah Dobson's first goal of the year. Through seven games this month, Palmieri has three goals and five helpers. The winger is up to 15 points, 44 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-4 rating over 17 appearances. The 33-year-old is playing a key role on offense and should be considered in most fantasy formats for his scoring alone.

  • Islanders' Grant Hutton: Earns first two assists

    Hutton notched two assists and went plus-3 in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Hutton helped out on goals by Pierre Engvall and Noah Dobson. The 29-year-old Hutton hadn't earned an assist at the NHL level prior to Thursday -- his first NHL point was a goal in the 2021-22 campaign. The defenseman continues to fill in on a short-staffed Islanders blue line, which is missing three regulars and likely won't be at full strength until mid-to-late December at the earliest. In addition to his two assists, Hutton has six shots on net, seven hits and nine blocked shots over six appearances in a third-pairing role.

  • Islanders' Bo Horvat: Collects pair of helpers

    Horvat notched two assists and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Horvat continues to be a boom-or-bust player in November -- this was his fourth multi-point effort of the month to go with three scoreless outings. He set up tallies by Scott Mayfield and Anders Lee in this contest. Horvat is up to five goals, nine helpers, 51 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-1 rating through 17 appearances. He continues to be a focal point on offense as the top-line center, and he's producing enough to be in fantasy lineups most of the time.

  • Islanders' Scott Mayfield: Pots goal in win

    Mayfield scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Mayfield gave the Islanders their first lead of the game just 14 ticks into the second period. The 32-year-old defenseman has taken on a massive role in November with the Islanders missing three of their regulars on the blue line, though it's mostly a defensive assignment. He's up to three points, 13 shots on net, 30 hits, 26 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a plus-7 rating through 17 contests and should see top-four minutes at least until Alexander Romanov (upper body) returns.

  • Islanders' Pierre Engvall: Nets goal Thursday

    Engvall scored a goal on a team-high five shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Engvall played well in a third-line role, and his tally at 2:10 of the second period was the game-winner. That was the first goal of the season for the 28-year-old winger. He has three points, 20 shots on net, six PIM and four hits over nine outings. Engvall is holding onto a bottom-six spot in the lineup, though he's unlikely to score enough to draw much fantasy interest.

  • Islanders' Noah Dobson: Puts away empty-netter

    Dobson scored an empty-net goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Dobson ended a seven-game slump with the empty-netter, which was his first goal of the season. The 24-year-old defenseman has at least 10 goals in each of the last three campaigns, but it's been a disappointing start to 2024-25 for him. He's at seven points, 53 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 17 appearances, well short of the pace that saw him rack up 70 points in 79 regular-season contests last year.

  • Islanders' Jean-Gabriel Pageau: Tallies on power play

    Pageau scored a power-play goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Pageau is up to four goals and two assists over seven contests in November. The 32-year-old tied the game at 1-1 with his tally Thursday. He's earned nine points (two on the power play) with 33 shots on net, 37 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 17 outings this season, though Pageau continues to find success in a top-line role while covering for Mathew Barzal (upper body).

  • Islanders' Anders Lee: Earns two more points in win

    Lee scored a goal on three shots and added a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    This was Lee's third multi-point effort in the last four games. All four of his multi-point efforts this season have come away from UBS Arena. The 34-year-old winger is up to seven goals, six assists, 58 shots on net, 23 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 17 contests. As long as Lee's on the top line, he's a worthy player for fantasy consideration in most formats.

  • Islanders' Semyon Varlamov: Wins again Thursday

    Varlamov allowed two goals on 26 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    The Islanders played an excellent defensive game over the first two periods, and they built up enough of a lead for Varlamov to protect in the third. He's now won two straight games, and he's allowed just five goals on 81 shots over his last three outings. Varlamov is 3-3-1 with a 2.86 GAA and an .892 save percentage over seven appearances this season. Ilya Sorokin will likely be back between the pipes for Saturday's matinee game in Seattle.

  • Islanders' Semyon Varlamov: Slated to start Thursday

    Varlamov is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Thursday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

    Varlamov stopped 28 of 30 shots en route to a 4-2 victory over Ottawa in his most recent start last Thursday. He has a 2-3-1 record, 3.01 GAA and .887 save percentage over six appearances with the Islanders in 2024-25. Vancouver is a challenging adversary with an 8-3-3 record. The Canucks are also tied for 13th offensively with 3.21 goals per game.
